    "content": "I urge that we treat this Bill with the seriousness it deserves and fast track it. I am saying this because the national Government will not release monies for doctors who belong to the counties. There are arrears of monies payable to doctors through the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). For those who have not been paid, that is contained in this Bill. That is why we need to hurry up and pass it. Conditional allocations for Community Health Promoters (CHPs) are also contained in this Bill. The share that the national Government is supposed to give is also contained in this Bill. Conditional allocations for construction of county headquarters, which include county headquarters for Tana River, Nyandarua, Lamu and the other two, are contained in this Bill. Therefore, after passing this Bill, the national Government will be in a position to transfer these funds to the relevant county governments. The amounts are contained in the Second Schedule of this Bill. Conditional allocations to the County Aggregation and Industrial Parks (CAIPs) Programme that is set out in Column D are also contained in this Bill. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, you will remember that during his campaigns, the President said that every county must have an industrial park and each industrial park will be sponsored partly through the national Government share and there will also be a share by county governments. As I speak, there are counties that have not done industrial parks. The reason is that funds have not been released to them.
